Unless We have greatly misjudged tn

Unless We have greatly misjudged the character of the average frontier citizen during a several years residence among them, Pus0n Fowler has made q great
 mistake m his eyangeilzing tactics IT Prescott Alter preaching for ten nights without any success in the awakening of sinners, he lost his temper on Thursday night, and again on las, night. and at temp,ed what, in politics, would be called buldosing tactics. Now, if Par son Fowler could succeed in holding up the lurid glare of the flames of hell be- fore his audience, in all the appalling terror n which We have heard evangel- is,ic orators do It, he might succeed in tightening nervous women and tlInid children to fee from the wrath to come and seek a place Of safety in the Bap- ;ist church. Or, f he could depict the scraphic beauties of the heavenly king dom, the joy and peace of a Christian  life ls compared with iha, Of the sinner, he might persuade men and women to believe. But when he displays the un- bridled and unourbed temper, as he has durlng the past two nights, and meta phorically shakes his Christian fist in the face Of the sinner, and figuratively threatens to wipe the ground with him" If be does not accept salvation as he offers 1t, he vii find the western sin ner get right up on his ear, and dare him 10 do the wiping act While the no,o- rleiy which he has gained by his loss of temper during the past two evenings wi. no doubt result in boom, so tar as audiences are concerned, during the fu- ture services, unless he can display more of a Christian spirit in his dis courses. Parson Fowler might just as well pack hls grip-saok and return to Pbenlx, 50 far as any good he can ac- COmplish here.

Inadvertently, We suppose, the follow ing portion of the report of the commit tee of the grand jury n reference to the board of supervisors and the financial condition of the county was omitted from the full report, as published by our contemporary The limit of the countys debt, as authorized by the liar rison act, having been reached, any ter ritorial legislation had subsequent to the passage Of said act, whereby the deb, has been increased in excess of the sum authorized, such as the payment of re- wards for the destruction of wild ani- mals, etc, would appear to be clearly Illegal Your committee also find that, exclusive of the subsidy aid bonds to the Prescott & Arizona Central railway, the county debt IS over , per cent of the property valuation upon which taxes were collected last year, and including said bonds the county owes I5 per cent. of sad last years valuation upon which taxes were collected" In reference to the provisions of the Harrison act. there is no doubt in our humble opinion that that any legislation had since the passage Of the act whereby the county deb, IS in- creased a single cent beyond the limit allowed by the act IS unlawful, although Ithe Fourteenth legislature and the ''pow CTS that be" have evidently construed the law to suit their own views, hence the importanoe of having more competent advice With reference 10 the debt of the county, the showing IS not hattering, and forcibly demonstrates the necessity Of enforcing the law in relation to assess ment and taxation

tween Mrs. Splice and our friend BENDER;

probably destined to be ephemeral i'll dura

Mrs. Blender, viii be enough to cause her

Blender, with the pleased air Of a connoisseur
who has found something worthy of his adj
miration, glances at the autographs atrocl-
ties. praises the handwriting and applauds the
sentiments of their originators; then he crap
pies with a blank page on his own account.
Blenders honest nature is above stealing the
productions of other brains. He determines
to compose something Of his very own. lie
